CHICAGO(July 17, 2020) – Chicago Fire FC today unveiled plans and membership benefits for its reimagined Kids Club program.

“We’re thrilled to launch our new Chicago Fire FC Kids Club program, giving children and families the chance to create memorable moments and begin a lifetime connection to our sport and our Club,” said Chicago Fire FC Chief Operating Officer John Urban. “The Fire have long invested in Chicago’s youth, through camps, clinics and our award-winning P.L.A.Y.S. Program. Now, through the content, activities and game-day experiences delivered via the Kids Club, our youngest Fire followers can gain an early appreciation for the global game and feel the fun and excitement of being part of Chicago Fire FC in their very own way.”
The Club also engaged Chicago-based cartoonist and illustrator George Gant (Instagram: @geogantart), who will contribute artwork and narrative storytelling to help bring the Kids Club to life across various Club channels. Gant recently spearheaded the reimagining of the illustrated persona of Sparky, the beloved Chicago Fire FC mascot, and the creation of an all-new “Adventures of Sparky” comic series available exclusively to Kids Club members.
Future perks of Kids Club membership include the invitation to exclusive non-matchday programming, including FIFA Tournaments, a Summer Reading Program presented by Moraine Valley Community College, family days and opportunities to interact with Chicago Fire FC first team players. Details for all forthcoming events will be announced at a later date.
Members may request their welcome packet be mailed to their home address for a flat $10 shipping charge.
